When switching, often a big requirement is to recreate InDesign layouts in QuarkXPress, which can be fairly time-consuming. Matthias Guenther, Director of Quark’s Desktop Business Unit, said, “Today more and more InDesign users are switching to QuarkXPress, especially since Quark offers the Competitive Upgrade from InDesign to QuarkXPress. With IDML Import, InDesign files are converted directly into editable QuarkXPress objects that retain attributes such as style sheet names and master pages contained in the IDML file.

today announced a new update to QuarkXPress 2017 called the “QuarkXPress 2017 January 2018 Update.” The free update includes the first look at Quark’s new Adobe InDesign IDML Import feature. 23, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) - Quark Software Inc. The support community is sparse and their help forum confirmation email didn't send even after requesting new ones, so I wasn't able to join and ask questions.Denver, CO, Jan. Exporting PDF has no progress bar, the software just goes 'not responding' for 10-20 minutes so you have no idea how long you will have to wait. Anytime you click on one of the palettes in the side bar, the whole user interface goes into a mini-seizure and flashes light and dark. Undo operations frequently crash the program. User interface hides itself when window is out of focus for no reason, infuriating when trying to follow a tutorial in a web browser. I call customer support asking for help to get Table styles to work, and they respond that Table styles just don't work on some tables and I have to live with it. Scrolling on a page with 15-20 elements is slow on a modern computer. Table of contents automation lacks customization. Can't open multiple projects at once, makes transferring things to a new project a huge pain. CONSĭesign flaws in software are a constant obstacle. 60 days of free tech support is a nice perk. Master pages are very useful for streamlining the creation of a large document (we used it to automatically show chapter headings on every page of a user manual). Nice abstraction features like paragraph and character styles so you can change a style once and QuarkXPress updates your whole document. I've used freeware that felt more polished and reliable. I am shocked that a software that began in the 80s and dominated the market at one point is so low quality. The QuarkXPress interface is buggy and frankly feels unfinished. As a former InDesign user, InDesign has all the features that QuarkXPress has, plus more options and control. QuarkXPress had the features we needed to get the job done, but some of QuarkXPress's limitations negatively impacted the end product. We were able to get our project done (a technical user manual).
